Here’s how much electricity the state’s windfarms current produce The winds in California get a bad name when they worsen devastating fires across the state but wind also is a clean form of energy the state is looking to harness further. The first big wind farms in the U.S. were built in California, then the… Read More
Offshore wind power is as a critical resource in the rapid shift towards renewable energy, but is also now a target of frequent cyberattacks. Two-thirds of energy professionals say their infrastructure is more vulnerable to cyber threats than ever, making guidance more vital than ever before. DNV and Siemens Energy have launched a joint industry… Read More
Under this contract, the joint-venture between SBM Offshore and Technip Energies will construct and install a Floating Production, Storage and Offloading vessel (FPSO), leveraging Technip Energies’ expertise in engineering and modularization for the topsides and SBM Offshore’s Fast4Ward® hull.

Renewables advocates highlight growth of clean energy under president-elect’s first term while opponents are bolstered by his sector antagonism Offshore wind groups put on a brave face on Donald Trump’s election as US president amid fears his administration would halt federal permitting and leasing, moves that could discourage supply chain investment over the next four… Read More
If a Trump Interior Department slows permitting or halts leasing or reviews, it could delay projects on the East Coast. One of those is SouthCoast Wind, which plans to use the MassCEC terminal in the city to marshal the major wind turbine components. Representatives of the offshore wind industry in public remarks on Wednesday congratulated… Read More
A hostile administration will compound the challenges Maine faces in reaching its ambitious renewable energy goals. President-elect Donald Trump has promised to stop offshore wind development on day one of his administration. That will compound the challenges Maine faces in reaching its ambitious climate and renewable energy goals – and that humanity faces in limiting the looming… Read More
